This is a really important opportunity for us. It's something we've talked about and had on our wish list for years. It's also a wonderful opportunity for our students to be able to perform on a fully functioning stage rather than a recital hall stage. It's important in their pre-professional training. We're all thrilled.

There's definitely an appeal for families who might be nervous about viewing opera for the first time, and the seasoned audiences who are more experienced with traditional musical scores.
